    not touchy at all...its the floyd haterz who are touchy really..pac fans especially....to answer ur question though, yes...i mean he couldn't get the 1 guy and he already beat the 2 guy....next choice "fighting the best" standpoint is the 3 guy..

    why wouldn't he "really want the mosley fight?"

    He took the fight because he stands to make 25-30 million dollars from it and that is the most $ that is available to him right now. :deal

    Of course it's a fight he wanted. Berto wouldn't have been paid step aside money otherwise.

    how did he want pac. if he wanted pac he could have followed the normal commission rules or agree to pacs compromise. he never wanted that fight, he knows pac has the tools to beat his ass.

    after floyd betas mosley, these fools will make threads like "did floyd only fight shane because he knew he could beat him? vote: 1. hell no, floyd only takes on fights where he knows he will lose. 2. hell no, he and everyone else knew that mosley would be an easy fight, thats the only reason he took it."

    sad ****s

    All he wanted was olympic style testing, nothing else, Pacquiao's team were the ones that pulled out.

    Now we have quite the conundrum. Supposedly he doesn't want to fight Pac or Shane. Despite this, these are the two guys that he's gone after. If he's only fighting Shane because he has no other choice, then why not just fight Pac instead being that it would represent a bigger payday? If he doesn't want to fight either, then he would opt to fight Pac if he had to chose between the two because of the bigger payday. So clearly he genuinely wanted to fight at least one of these guys.

    He doesn't have to fight anybody, neither does Pac. No one is forced to do anything these days and if Mayweather didn't "really" want to fight Mosley then he could've ducked him or retired again.

    Does he want to fight shane? Not really he would rather fight pac the current p4p number 1 and make more money. But that fight didn't happen for a number of reasons.

    Is he willing to fight mosley? Of course he is or negotiations wouldn't have got the green light.

    The haters are running out of excuses. They said that Floyd never fights someone with a chance to beat him, but now he's fighting Mosley.
    Now they say it's only because he has no other choice :lol:
